We <br />have seen firsthand the abuse of the site including illegal <br />dumping, non-residents using the site, and concerns with traffic <br />flow and access. Operational costs and duplicate services are <br />valid. <br />With that said, we do have concerns about using the existing <br />Ramsey County sites. We do use them for non-leaf recycling, <br />both Arden Hills and Midway. First, their hours are limited and <br />they are closed two days of the week. They do not open until 11 <br />AM. In the fall, the lines are extremely long to drop off yard waste <br />especially leaves. As you know, many Roseville properties have <br />very large mature trees and have a lot of leaf debris. You can <br />only mulch so many leaves. We have been lucky to live a short <br />distance from the current Roseville site and have appreciated the <br />ability to use it. On a typical leaf pick up in our yard, which occurs <br />weekly during the fall, we will make a minimum of two trips to the <br />leaf dump. If we need to use the Ramsey County sites, this adds <br />significant mileage, time and waits in line. In addition, we help <br />our neighbors with their leaf pick up. We would no longer do this <br />if we were driving further to the other sites. <br />Qbhf!:7!pg!:15 <br /> <br />
